Writing something for a *thing* about river Thames landscapes and DESPERATELY trying not to use the word ‘liminal.’

Transitive?

Surprised the river doesn't have multiple adjectives given to it specifically. Thamey or Thamish don't sound right though.

Exactly this.

The inexorable calling to the word ‘liminal’ affects us all.

kyjanl.bsky.social•12 days ago

It’s a great word, though.

lizanderson.bsky.social•12 days ago

It is.

There are a few words that always hit me as thesis title words. Liminal is one or intersectional. Hope you find your words.

If it helps, imagine explaining it to a 5 year old (or me)

Great advice. I love the word but everyone writing about landscapes uses it all the time. Trying to find an alternative but it’s not easy.

Not 'liminal' is a rabbit hole of unapparent words, the pen impalpable. The word at the tip of your tongue but the flavor does not elicit specific taste. I digress...
